Hi! Where did you order your new LED-lights? Cheers.

Would love this boat for the Florida Gulf Coast.

Interesting video Roger. Let us know how the glue holds up!

(Depending on who you use for MOT's) Fitting LED bulbs to halogen head lamp units is a fail item. You can change the whole headlamp to a LED unit as long as they have european 'E' markings and have a dipped beam image. 😉👍

Nice video.

absolutely cool !!! but this f*cking loud music :(

Great idea no daubt but I’ve tried everything and in the end I invested in a trailer best thing I’ve done

where's all the rest? the seats and x-bars, etc...

OMG DOCTOR LENNARD YOUR RUclips CHANNEL IS FIRE

Great video, horrible music at 4:30 kind of ruins the drama by over dramatizing?

genuinely a great video. Laughed a fair few times icl

I love you

Nice review Roger. Been looking at this and the Expedition specifically and they have a lot of advantages over the Lugger. Possible next boat for me. Need to start saving up!!!

Do you work at lady manners

So, the mizzen is kind of like a rudder, in the wind, then? (I'm not quite sailor, as yet...)

I LOVE experiments and this is a good one 👍 👌

Great look at a UK built (I assume?!) glass fibre BR20 with the marconi rig option. It is interesting to compare with mine which is an Australian built epoxy ply version with the gunter yawl rig. I have made some mods to my boat along similar lines to some shown here (e.g. electric bilge pump to offload waterballast and I am in the process of converting to electric power but am struggling with the fit of the outboard & prop through the flaps in the well slot. I am using a LIFEPO battery $$$! for the weight saving.) I also use a remote controlled electric winch for loading on the trailer singlehanded (an excellent addition). I can confirm these boats sail as well as they look and are one of the most seaworthy open boats of this size on the market AFAIK.

Excellent presentation of a remarkable sailboat. Many thanks for sharing.

Do u do any fishing whilst ur on the water?

Hi Roger, how has it performed? Be great to see some videos?

Could you do a sketch of this with dimensions? Thank you. I would like to try and make one from aluminum. Thank you Mike

👍

I use about thigh deep water, get the wheels underneath the boat with pole ends facing stern, let the bow drift downwind, upwind hand with two fingers in scupper (beneath the waterline) to keep the boat from drifting, downwind hand pushes wheels into palm of upwind hand (which is holding the boat from drifting by said scupper) which guides the pole right into the hole. Takes 10-15 seconds, no special rigging needed. Just need deep enough water.

If you put your furling jib on a telescoping fishing rod blank of the right dimensions, you dont need high forestay tension to make the jib work well. PS you can also use the masthead spinnaker cap to attach the top of the forestay

Convinced me a trailer is the way to go...thanks.

Is it pronounced "vittles"?

You two need to go on more trips, this was great! Very funny, really well filmed and edited and yeah, just great!

😂 Nice one!

really cool. You should have a video with how to make it.

Great vid sir

Hi Roger have a look on youtube how are American freinds do it much easier lifting back of hobie with two hands.

I've gone thru quite a few head sail designs on my 2014 AI, and IMHO, you need a back stay and a (semi)rigid mast, or a jib is of little use. My latest version includes an aluminum mast and continuous fuller, attached to a short bowsprit. It works well, giving a nice boost in a wide variety of conditions, and it does not interfere with the main sail. I've got a short video of it in modest winds here: ruclips.net/video/B0pMUeO_DDM/видео.html

Let a rope and pulleys due the work Attach (2) vertical supports.20 feet apart.you can bury them in the ground or temp attach to wall. Add a horizontal cross arm to the columns that are at least 2 foot higher than required for kayak wall clearance..your only supporting about 200#……attach a kayak pulley system to horizontal. Use a cheep pulley system and if it works for you a more expensive one later. This setup can be easily set up and broke down. For storage………. The TI gets to be a Beast Another benefit …. You can load up your kayak prior to hoisting

How did you attach the cradles to the roof rack?

How did you mount those cradles to the roof rack bars? Did you need to drill holes in the them? Or use some standard fitting?

what kind of rack attachment is that?

Just exactly the kind of video I was looking for. I am not a big fan of trailers and I am only ten minutes away from the place I can launch my TI so car topping has my preference. Can you tell me what is the distance between the two bars on your car roof please ?

Lo que tú no sabes es que la cuota económica que la organización paga por ése espacio de investigación, nada de ése apoyo económico es distribuido para el desarrollo de las Comunidades del Merendon, lo adquieren personas particulares que no han dejado nada de desarrollo o proyectos de beneficio concreto a las Aldeas, lo han tomado para beneficio personal extraños al lugar de investigación.

Thanks for this video. I have the same car and a Hobie AI. Never tried to load it from the rear because afraid of breaking that flap over the rear window. Is that flap sturdy enough to support the weight of the hull? In my case the hull is even lighter. What about to load the Island fully rigged (with no mast) in the same way? Is it feasible in your opinion? It would be a time-saving solution. Thanks.

nice :) I put my hobbie using typicall thule stuff and two kajak keepers. To make sure I use a lot of ropes and belts . Maybe to many.... So far I can drive 110 km/h never tried more but who knows?

Looking good. Like the Hobie cradles on the roof rack and the sand wheels!

Like the simple and practical design.

Hi Roger, Where did you connect your Halyard for your Jib on the TI? Do you have a furling system for the Jib you can share? TIA

I’m in your class my g

What a g doctor Lenard
